A Place With Blackened Hearts
One of my older songs. I wrote it right before college back in 98 or 99....can't remember.
Just a small town boy with an acoustic guitar and an alternative and metal background singing about relationships, love, life, politics, emotions, etc. Hard to
Singer/Songwriter from the Buffalo/Niagara Falls area.
Story behind the song
This is a song about being a good person in a world full of nutcases and evil people.
I first played this publically in front of a crowd of drunk college students at a party in my dorm room, Freshman year. Everyone loved the song and kept begging me to play it when they were over.
Lyrics
See, the darkness creeping in, covers everything
Possessed by the dream, believe the less deceived
(chorus) God caress me now, Please show me how, I was stuck from the start, in a place with blackened hearts
Time, will show us how we live, with ourselves
Escape, is just wasted time, for me to help them out
(chorus) God possess my mind, help me to unwind, I was deep from the start, in a place with blackened hearts
This is the end my friend, forget the lives we lived, no way of turning back, our future fades to black
(chorus #2) Oh, and my life starts to fade, well I've seen better days
Now my life it seems so small, can God forgive my ways?
And now my time it seems so short, but I know who's to blame
And I can't take back the faults, I made
(chorus) God help me now, please show me how, I was raised from the start, in a place with blackened hearts.
